I just spoke with a gentleman who owns a 74 FJ40 and he wants to organize a trip to Tuktoyaktuk for the summer of '26 or '27 in the July/August area.
He would like other Land Cruiser freaks to join for this adventure. He is very familiar with...
Haha seemed like a fine looking specimen but I like most old cruisers spotted out on the road. Honestly it was a long day after leaving north island at 6am and it was getting dark so maybe I was just seeing things. thought It was a similar paint...
Day 3, rest of the trip after the trail,
Since we were ahead of schedule we decided we would take the lower poison road and go out yalokom and head back towards the coast. Find some where to camp closer to nahatlatch. But yalokom had other...
Day 2 part 3...
Now heading back the right direction again. I hooked a tree and blew out a tire... fun location to change along a narrow shelf roads but like a Nascar crew we had it swapped in about 15 minutes. Fast forwarding to where we had to...
Day 3
It was a chilly morning. I wish we could have had a fire. We packed up and carried on. There was evidence people has been in to the lake from the poison side. As suspected the trail was cleared already and we didnt need to bring the saw out...
The weather on this trip was excellent, but we had threats of thunder/lightning and rain but it didn't materialize, or so we thought. A few pics to supplement Mike's.
Day one, travel day.
We started our adventure around 8 am leaving maple ridge. We had not even hit Harrison yet and I encountered my first problem. I did a coolant flush days before and didn't seat a hose clamp well and it was leaking everywhere...
Day 2 part 2,
This is where the shenanigans began, as you wind down the shelf roads you get the the bottom of the valley. At the bottom is a lot of fun multiple creek crossings and a good wash out. Kim attempted to roll over going down the one...
Btw. I’m in Sioux Lookout. Gorgeous scenic little town. There is a huge 6’x9’ wooden frame offering users the chance to take a ‘scenic’ picture thru the frame. So here is 4 miles vis in fire smoke and a turbo Otter taxiing in. Lots of floater...
So if this is a random photo thread, can we post like anything interesting? I took a beekeeping course this spring and here is a look at my hive as it continues to grow this spring..... I put a second box on it today to give the girls some more...
Went to the local high school (Brooks Senior Secondary) today to help with a 3D printer I had donated awhile ago. There just happened to be this perfect parking spot right beside one of the teachers fj45. Probable the only high school in BC with...
Really sad. RIP and condolences to their family and friends
I enjoyed the videos of theirs I’ve seen. And appreciated how they were able to live the dream building cool stuff and then hitting the road where real adventures lie. They seemed like...
By the time we got off the Powell River ferry we didn’t think we’d have time to search for the beach spot plus I didn’t want any carnage of my own. As a result we went up instead of down and camped in a clear cut (indicated in orange). The...
